    it was reco'd but it was a terrible stock to short on cramer's buy.

    i do that sometimes, and didn't even get a whiff of "it MIGHT set up for a short" other than his initial say-so.

    (edit: obviously, it went down in the afternoon. the risk/reward wasn't there for a good setup, however).

    If you say so. All I'm saying is that if you are already short and Cramer comes out and pumps your stock, you are already down a quick 5%, 10%, or even 15%. For you to say "I breathe a huge sigh of relief" when this happens is BS.

    Cramer is one of the best fades EVER. Maybe even better than Stock_turder. :D

    So you've been shorting his calls to the buy the market since Dow 6,000?
